Kelly Ripa, Susan Lucci Comment on AMC Cancellation
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Daytime, ABC, Cancellations, Gossip,
It’s official: All My Children has been canceled. ABC delivered the news in a shocking double elimination, axing AMC and One Life to Live on the same day.
Kelly Ripa, who played Hayley Vaughan Santos on the series, has already released a statement. “All My Children means so much more to me than any place,” she said of the set where she and husband Mark Consuelos met. “We had our children there, it was a big part of our lives, and I think that to cancel a show that has been on television for so many years, what are you going to replace it with?”

Regis Philbin (Finally!) Announces His Retirement
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Syndication, Video,
The day I first dreamed about over two years ago has finally came true.
This morning on Live with Regis and Kelly, Regis Philbin said this would be his “last year on this show.”
Philbin, who is just two years shy of hitting his 30-year anniversary on the program, gave no specific reason for deciding to retire now.
“It's been a long time," he explained. "It's been 28 years since I’ve been here and it was the biggest thrill of my life to come back to New York, where I grew up as a kid watching TV in the early days, you know -- never even dreaming that I would one day have the ability, or whatever it takes, to get in front of the camera and talk to it.”

Awkward TV: Kate Gosselin and Regis Philbin
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Prime Time, Reality, Talk Shows, Video,
I’m not sure what’s more painful to watch—Jon Gosselin going through a midlife crisis or Regis Philbin making uneducated statements (again).
During a pre-taped interview with Kate Gosselin, Philbin openly admitted that he was not a follower of Jon & Kate Plus Eight. Although that reveal should have immediately disqualified him from the conversation, the Live with Regis and Kelly host then proceeded to add his two cents to the divorce matter.

An Open Letter to Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Syndication, Editorial,
Dear Regis and Kelly,
I have something I really need to get off my chest. Even though I continue to watch Live with Regis and Kelly on a fairly regular basis (usually out of habit), I find myself increasingly more annoyed as the days go by.
You can call me bitter and jealous all you want, but this is something I’ve been bothered by long before the economy started to tank. The current climate has only made it worse.
Earlier this week, I flipped on your program while Regis was talking about the AIG bonuses. Kelly followed that up with a story about a group of teachers who opted to take a 5% pay cut to help save their coworkers. That discussion then led to an unnecessary confession from Regis: He recently took a pay cut as well. (Uhh - did he want us to pat him on the back?) When the topic was redirected back to Kelly, she then joked, “Some of us don’t need a pay cut!”

Anderson Cooper Rips Apart Living Lohan
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Syndication, Video,
UPDATE: You can find an update to this story here
On today’s episode of Live with Regis and Kelly, guest host Anderson Cooper diverted from his usual discussions about hard news to talk about….reality television.
In addition to making fun of Project Runway‘s leather queen (Stella), the CNN anchor used his journalistic skills to brilliantly shred Living Lohan.
C’mon Gelman. Can’t you see how much better your show would be without Regis?
More Reasons Why Regis Philbin Should Retire
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Syndication, Editorial, Video,
A few months ago, I listed 8 reasons why I thought Regis Philbin should start making his retirement plans. Now I would like to add a #9 and #10.
#9. Back in May, the talk show host was talking about the recent American Idol finale when he said, “What happened to the past winners? Where are they today?” When told by co-host Kelly Ripa that they come on their show “all the time,” Regis responded, “Really? I haven’t noticed.”
#10. Philbin, who actually went to the premiere of The Dark Knight yesterday evening, sadly referenced Heath Ledger as ‘Keith Ledger’. (You can see that clip from today’s show below.)
Kathie Lee Gifford Returning To Morning TV
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, NBC, Editorial, News,
Just when you were absolutely sure you’d never have to sit through another excruciating story about Kathie Lee Gifford’s children she is coming back to morning TV.
The 11-time Emmy winner has been named co-host of the 4th hour of NBC’s Today Show. The new gig starts April 7.
Kathie Lee Gifford is obviously no stranger to this day part. She was on TV for 15 years as co-host of Live with Regis and Kathie Lee. Gifford left the show in 2000. She was replaced by fellow, overly-perky personality, Kelly Ripa.
